I was riding in an elevator with a few minutes left in the 4th. There was a guy with a Colorado lanyard and press pass. I kiddingly said I'm sorry. He replied with it's he who should apologize.We had a young Buffs family sitting behind us with a 7 year old boy. The youngster was a big fan and you could see the sadness on his face. Many a young Gopher fan has been there too. I was impressed with the number of fans that made the trip and hope they had a good weekend.
Yeah a great program historically and when they announced this matchup we figured it would be a good non conference match.I was riding in an elevator with a few minutes left in the 4th.

Reminds me of a 5 and 7 year old who sat behind me at Penn State in 2016. They were so excited in the fourth about us winning and then the bottom dropped out.We had a young Buffs family sitting behind us with a 7 year old boy.

It sucks but maybe it builds some character.Reminds me of a 5 and 7 year old who sat behind me at Penn State in 2016. They were so excited in the fourth about us winning and then the bottom dropped out.
He's in his third yearIt went so badly the AD had to issue the Dreaded Vote of Confidence to a first year coach.
I mean if there is anyone who understands what they are going through it has to be MN sports fans right?
I would agree for the most part, but they did have that one glorious (for them) year in 2016 where they won their division, climbed as high as #8 in the CFP, and finished in the teens in both polls.They haven't been the same since Gary Barnett was forced out in 2005. That year they finished 1st in their division and 7-5 record overall.
Early 90's, Colorado vs. Nebraska was possibly the game of the year. Now? Ugh. Two dumpster fire programs.Yeah a great program historically and when they announced this matchup we figured it would be a good non conference match.
Yeah, I overlooked that year. They had a really good string of coaches with Barnett, Rick Neuheisel and Bill McCartney.I would agree for the most part, but they did have that one glorious (for them) year in 2016 where they won their division, climbed as high as #8 in the CFP, and finished in the teens in both polls.
Gary made his bed.They haven't been the same since Gary Barnett was forced out in 2005. That year they finished 1st in their division and 7-5 record overall.
Unless, of course they are Viking fans!Depends upon how long you've been a Minnesota football fan. Minnesota fans for about 10 years or less haven't experienced misery to the extent that Colorado fans have this year or even last year.
